👀 visual anatomy 🧠
just a couple of art pieces I have in my home treatment space
love when I find patients hypnotized by them
my goal as a healthcare professional is to create a comfortable and resourceful environment for you to ask questions and make connections
there are💡moments every day
there are no stupid questions - just jokes that suck

a few times a month, patients come in telling me they tore their rotator cuff 🤷🏼♂️
clinical experience has me looking at them skeptically and the muscle testing commences
they may not have imaging available early on to confirm which structures are compromised
the shoulder joint is our most movable joints (17 muscles attach to the scapula) but also most susceptible to injury
the following post is designed to help you become more familiar with what is underneath your skin
muscle is a tissue that contracts and stabilizes the joints it surrounds and crosses
like winding up a jack-in-the-box, constant contractions create tension and limit our comfortable range of motion
we need to listen to our body and take breaks
although rotator cuff injuries are common, most can be prevented!
daily stretching, putting your body through all capable joint motions, hydration, proper nutrition and listening to our body when it needs are break are vital components in maintaining normal function of our parts
put down your phone and rotate that rotator cuff!

Congratulations to Stefanie & Salvatore!
One of those weddings where the expectations were MASSIVE as this couple had seen me play at a couple family weddings over 4 years ago
I could not disappoint
People rarely see me stress - I just conceal it more efficiently
As luck would have it, the guests invited were addicted to dancing
The perfect crowd to match my style
I am grateful for the opportunity to do something I love in my 'spare' time
See you on the dance floor 🤜🏻

"I know a shortcut"
If you've ever hiked or walked anywhere with me, you'll agree that I blaze my own trails
what does being in nature do to you?
boosts the immune system.
lowers blood pressure.
reduces stress.
improves mood.
increases ability to focus, even in those with ADHD.
accelerates recovery from surgery or illness.
increases energy level.
improves sleep.
Get outside. Exercise. We were meant to walk.

AMOL... It's for everything
Polish kids will get this
Sit up Straight!
Is your neck sore? Get headaches? Can't feel your hand sometimes? Eyes strained?
Do you look like you are using a device even when you are not?
That doesn't seem natural - does it?
Our skeleton is designed to have us walking with our head up, chest out and shoulders back
Tech makes productivity easier and more efficient - the only compromise is our anatomy
We were not meant to de-evolve into seated mammals over 200 years of industrialized civilization
There are more tech neck injuries reported now than ever before - and it's starting at a younger age
I have patients under my care that haven't reached double digits in age but are presenting with injuries and pain similar to seasoned office workers
There is no easy fix
-no device
-no therapy
-no surgery
Don't believe the hype
Posture is individual
Everything you do contributes to how you feel
Speak to your massage therapist, osteopath, chiropractor or physiotherapist about how to improve your posture today!
P.S. get off your phone

It has been a busy past few months
I preach balance but did not practice it
I started teaching Physiology at my old massage therapy school last September - literally my dream job - talking about how the body works to eager minds
I am fortunate to have immersed myself in fields that I am passionate about
The only thing missing is more time
There was an unplanned absence from social media
Emails were missed, phone calls not returned, personal relationships suffered, health and exercised was shelved
I cannot do everything - I get this now
I was the worst
I had to go on vacation to catch up (good thing I don't need much sleep)
But we learn from our mistakes
2019 will be different
Looking forward to teaching, DJING, treating patients and reconnecting with those important in my life
